NBA stadium gathers all kinds of basketball masters, generally speaking, basketball is an inch tall and an inch strong sport, but there are some exceptions to the short and fat tall people, which bring us a different visual experience and become a different scenery on the basketball court. Let's take a look!
1. "Flying Pig" Buckley
Barkley's official height as an interior lineman is only 1 meter 98, according to himself, the real height may only be 1 meter 93 (to be verified), but this does not prevent him from becoming a well-known interior line in the history of the NBA, the NBA even because he modified the rules of the interior back play, back play no more than 5 seconds; it is because Barkley often relies on a huge ass, unreasonably continue to play back, so that the defenders are helpless. Rodman, who is as strong as O'Neill and Malone, feels that when he touches Barkley, he must also give up three points, and he does not dare to make a second. It is said that the Rockets were recruiting Buckley in order to deal with the "Rain Man" Campo (violent buckler).
However, the most well-known to the majority of fans is still the scene of Barkley and O'Neal fighting, it is said that at that time, O'Neal's fat hand intentionally or unintentionally touched Barkley's bald head, provoked the middle-aged greasy Barkley's nameless fire, stared at the round evil eyes, and smashed the ball with both hands to O'Fat; this is also, O'Fat is not a vegetarian, a blow to the old fist swings at Buckley; it is said that it is late and fast, Barkley shook his head like a boxing king Tyson, flashed away, returned a sumo wrestling move, pressed Ao Fat under his body, small hook fist waiting, the scene was chaotic ......
Of course, there is no eternal enemy but only eternal interests, and the two brothers are now both TNT TV commentators, for the dollar, and the cooperation is quite tacit.
2. "Paul big board" Delong. Williams
Delong. Williams is definitely the short and fat offensive leader in the defender, the official height is 1.91 meters, the visual height may be around 1.88 meters, the most familiar to us is the phrase "eat and sleep to beat Paul", every time we meet Chris. Paul can blow him up, and it is not an exaggeration to call him "Paul of the Big Board".
Unfortunately, Paul also led the Suns to the NBA Finals in 2021, signing a big contract, and his performance was surprising, and Delong has long disappeared. Actually, conquering Paul is nothing, Deron. Williams's most surprising yao ming, who dared to buckle 2 meters 26 meters at the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games with a height of less than 1 meter 8, fortunately did not buckle that time, which made Chinese fans breathe a big sigh of relief.
3. "Stick" Bunch. Wells
Bunge. Wells is officially about 1.96 meters tall, and was once Yao Ming's teammate during the Rockets, and I thought he would become another Barkley. Bunge. Wells nicknamed the stick, on the one hand, may be because he is short-tempered (look at his looks, it is not a good type), on the other hand may be because of his skills, whether in the NBA or later in the CBA gold panning, Bunge took the ball forward to the inside line basically can score, just like the swinging stick no one can stop, many viewers think that his height directly rushed to the inside line where to score, that is not to be hated, but he can enter.
It is worth mentioning that the reason why Bunge Wells was included in the Rockets is definitely because he was a blockbuster, thinking of the 2006 NBA playoffs, his height actually blew up Duncan, facing the defending champion Spurs, who ranked first in the West with a regular season record led by Duncan, Bunch Wells averaged 20+12 per game, shooting more than 60%, making the Spurs break out in a cold sweat! Perhaps because of this great round of games, his performance conquered the Rockets up and down, eager to recruit him into the command, but unfortunately in the Rockets, he may not be satisfied, the performance is not satisfactory, soon faded out of the NBA, and later the author also watched his several games in the CBA, the internal attack level is still very high, the speed is not fast, but it is able to score. But his blip is also lamentable, and it seems that it is not so easy to become Buckley (Buckley now often brags that he still has strength as a backing).
4. Greek "little shark" Schotsanitis
The Greek "Little Shark" is officially 2 meters 05 meters tall, is said to weigh 10 kilograms more than O'Neal, and has played in the NBA Summer League, but the Summer League is definitely his little temple. Many people may feel strange to him, but many old fans still remember him deeply.
The Greek Sharks made a splash at the 2006 Men's Basketball World Championships, which turned the inside line upside down, scoring as easily as probing for things, the strong Howard and Bosh took him helplessly, the bull-coaxing James was also defeated in front of him, and he even helped the Greek team defeat the United States. That World Championship, the little shark also had a fight with Yao Ming, Yao Ming first played the main Greek center center defeated, the result as a substitute of the little shark on the field, the author was amazed by his size, this is not the key, the key is that his strength and flexibility make people more amazing, so that some Chinese fans are very "dissatisfied"; Yao Ming, who was the world championship scoring king at the time, really saw the effort, but there was little power to fight back, and some of the restraints were "gray-headed". Nor is it bragging, Yao Ming was already not inferior to Ao Fat in the NBA, and easily played with Howard's existence.
Unfortunately, various factors have made people, or it may be that the weight is getting bigger and bigger in the later stage, and the baby shark has not been able to successfully log on to the NBA to become a generation of legends.
5. "Bus" Bartle
In the end, this player believes that everyone is no stranger, the reason why the bus is placed here, because the bus is definitely the pride of our countrymen to enter the NBA, the height of the bus 2 meters 10 is definitely not short, but relative to Yao Ming and Wang Zhizhi who entered the NBA, he is a representative figure of "short and fat".
Thinking back to that year, Yao Ming's first entry into the NBA was a thin hemp pole (probably fatter than Zhou Qi), Wang Zhizhi has never been fat, and the bus in the NBA full of strong men has always filled the Chinese people with hope and pride.
It is said that the Spurs were able to cross the Hurdles of the Lakers that year, because of the O'Neal hypothesis in training, and in reality, Battle's divine power to pull down O'Neal also made many fans worship him; at least in the eyes of the Spurs, Battle's offensive power is definitely not inferior to the existence of O'Fat, otherwise how can he be made to play O'Fat in training? Unfortunately, neither the Spurs nor the Nuggets saw the true strength of our buses and did not give him the same status and playing time as Ochu.
